In 2006, Mexico President Felipe Calderon, with U.S. assistance, launched a military campaign to combat Violent Mexican Transnational Criminal Organizations in attempt to disrupt the growing violence throughout Mexico. The result has been an uncontrollable drug war that has claimed more lives within Mexico than the U.S. campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq combined. From the U.S. perspective, the threat of spillover violence emanating from Mexico is a wicked problem and one that polarizes the...

In this paper, exploratory spatial data analysis ESDA and spatial econometric model are used to study the distribution characteristics and driving factors of A class logistics enterprises. The results show that A class logistics enterprises in the provincial and urban scale show a strong East and weak west situation, and each driving common factor has a significant positive effect on the development of local A class enterprises. The regional comprehensive economic strength has the greatest...

Ariel Roth on The Grand Canyon and the Genesis Flood. Part 2: Carving the Canyon 12-15-2012 The Grand Canyon is carved through an uplifted plateau. Why did the Colorado River cut the Canyon through an uplifted region instead of going around it, as any “intelligent” river would be expected to do? This paradox, and several others, was discussed as eight different proposed models for the carving of the Canyon were evaluated. For additional recordings on various topics regarding faith and...

Volatility spillover is described as the extent to which the volatility in one market affects the other and it is necessary to model the relationship between the volatilities of both markets. The volatility spillovers reveal that future trading could intensify volatility in the underlying spot market, perhaps due to the larger trading program and the speculative nature of the future trading. National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange Limited (NCDEX), being the largest agricultural commodity...

Based on the panel data of 30 provinces in China (excluding Tibet) from 2003 to 2017, this paper constructs the input-output index system, calculates the changes of total factor productivity of equipment manufacturing industry in 30 provinces by using DEA Malmquist analysis model, and further analyzes the impact of China's outward foreign direct investment on the technological progress of domestic equipment manufacturing industry by using the method of Dynamic Panel System GMM influence. The...

The purpose of this thesis is to assess the U.S. policies favoring the passing and implementing the Free Trade Area of the Americas and its impact on cooperative security in the Western Hemisphere. Similar to the 1990s, when the U.S. government debated the pros and cons of the NAFTA, the United States now faces a debate over passage and implementation of the FTAA. With many U.S. and Latin American citizens' focus on economic domestic issues, FTAA talks have been widely contested among...

This thesis reviews the connection between the Korean defense industry and Korean economic progress. The defense industry has both costs and benefits. Some argue that the benefits outweigh the costs; others argue the reverse. Because of the apparent diffusion of tension between South and North Korea, the domestic pressures to reduce the national defense budget are growing stronger. Consequently, some have questioned whether the Korean defense industry should be maintained. In fact, the Korean...

To counteract climate change people should adopt lifestyles consisting of numerous pro-environmental actions, across different domains, sustained over long time periods. Thus, it is important to understand how initial pro-environmental behaviors can impact the likelihood of subsequent behaviors. We tested the hypothesis that people use mental bookkeeping of past behaviors, allowing them to limit pro-environmental behaviors after having performed similar ones, and investigated the role of affect...
